CCS is an interdisciplinary department offering degree programs in Anthropology, Liberal Studies, and Religious Studies. The Department of Comparative Cultural Studies highlights the rich comparative traditions of disciplines and programs.

We are happy to feature the University of Houston – Downtown Center for Critical Race Studies in partnership with The Houston Young Lawyers Association (HYLA) and Kindred Spirits Design Co. as an Education House resource for Round 53: The Curious Case of Critical Race… Theory?

In this installation, visitors are met with thought-provoking illustrations, questions, and answers with the aim of quelling curiosity about CRT’s past, present, and purpose. In visiting the Education house, guests walk away with a deeper understanding of CRT, and therefore, are better equipped to engage with the remaining featured art houses and beyond.

Currently on view for Round 53: The Curious Case of Critical Race...Theory?, curated by Danielle Burns-Wilson. Open Wednesday – Sunday from 12 – 5 pm until June 5th, 2022.
